Chapter 252
Su Yalan also turned her attention to Song Yi with a little intimidation. Song Yi quickly asked her to concentrate on driving and replied that this was indeed the case. She also advised Qiao Yurou not to think about trying, and she would definitely regret it. (Please remember more chapters from us] The sunshine in Myanmar is very poisonous. He was tanned a lot when he went there for the first time, which made Su Mei feel very distressed about it.
Qiao Yurou pouted her mouth and was very unwilling to accept it. She complained to him, "Brother Song Yi is too partial, why can't I go?"
Song Yi laughed and replied, "You can't go if I treat you equally. Let's do this. Xiaorou, if you can get the consent of your family, I will take you to Myanmar with me?"
Su Yalan also laughed and said that Song Yi could not abolish his public for personal gain.
Qiao Yurou stared at him. Is Song Yi obviously bullying? Even if Su Yalan and Song Yi are her family, Su Yalan will definitely not agree, let alone her own parents.
Qiao Yurou's eyes were not intimidating, and Song Yi was not affected at all. He also told Qiao Yurou not to think about it and spend more time with her parents when she went home during the holidays.
Qiao Yurou replied, "At most, I will stay home for one month. Sister Baoqing has made an appointment with me here and ask me to help at the club."
Su Yalan laughed, "If Xiaorou followed her to Myanmar, the matter here would be put on hold."
No matter what, Qiao Yurou's dream of going to Myanmar was shattered, which made her feel a little disappointed, but there was something worth being happy about because they all really cared about her.
After Su Yalan drove home, Qiao Yurou felt this care more deeply. She guessed that it might be because Song Yi's family had no girls, and her grandparents were very nice to her. Not only did they care about her study, but they also asked her to come to the house more often and not treat herself as an outsider.
When Song Mingjie and the others talked about some strategic plans of Jinyu Jewelry, they did not avoid her, and even asked her to help out some ideas. For example, in the alliance with Fuxiang Silver Building, in addition to Song Mingjie directly contacting Shen Yingxue's father Shen Ruiyun, the communication between Qiao Yurou and Shen Yingxue is also very important. Both of them are little princesses in jewelry companies and their status is equal.
As for Qiao Yurou's desire to go to Myanmar, needless to say, everyone unanimously expressed their opposition, so Qiao Yurou gave up completely.
Because Qiao Yurou rarely comes to her house once, even Song Yi’s grandmother He Yufeng slept very late and kept holding Qiao Yurou to chat.
At night, Su Yalan kept Qiao Yurou at home. There were several guest rooms at home, so it was no problem to entertain Qiao Yurou. It was already very late at this time, and Qiao Yurou didn't want to bother Song Yi and the others to send her back, so she nodded and agreed.
Su Yalan seemed very happy to have such progress and took good care of Qiao Yurou. After this, it was almost past twelve o'clock.
Fortunately, Song Yi didn't have to worry about these things, so he went back to his room and called Lin Baoqing first.
Although we didn't meet each other for a day, Lin Baoqing felt like she was not seeing each other for three autumns. She talked to Song Yi on the phone for a long time and asked Song Yi to get up early so that she could accompany her to visit the ghost market Taobao.
Song Yi agreed, saying that he had really had no time to visit the ghost market for a long time, and he had been busy all the time and didn't have much time in the East China Sea. However, Lin Baoqing and his daughter insisted on going to the ghost market for ten years. Even though they couldn't buy anything good, they were an excellent opportunity to understand the market trends and increase their own knowledge.
Because she had to get up early, Song Yi hung up the phone early to rest, but Lin Baoqing still talked to him before receiving the phone. With Song Yi's subtle influence, she didn't take this expensive communication fee seriously. Anyway, Song Yi helped to pay the phone bill, so she didn't have to worry about it.
Song Yi wrote and painted according to his daily routine. He usually painted based on his experience on that day. For example, today, his paintings were scenes that many masters in the jade factory were excited about. This has no particularly profound meaning, but only reflects their different postures from their usual life.
After sleeping for two or three hours, Song Yi got up and called Lin Baoqing to get up, saying that he would go over to pick her up later.
Lin Baoqing was actually a little confused at this time, but after receiving the call, she got up immediately, started to clean up and dress up, and tried to meet Song Yi in the best condition.
It's early now, and people in the Ghost Market open their stalls earlier than in winter. The essence of this Ghost Market is here. When it's bright, the Ghost Market will basically end. Only in the dark can the stall owners take the biggest advantage, because at this time, the Taobao users have the highest requirements. Many things are completely different from those during the day when they see them. If you have good things in your hands, you will naturally not be afraid that no one will know the goods. But more often, 99% of these stall owners are not particularly good things in their hands, and they want others to buy them as treasures.
Song Shibo basically went around when it opened in the ghost market, but Song Yi did not set off with him. Following Song Shibo, he had to consider what he wanted to buy. He still felt that he was the most free to be with Lin Baoqing, and he could take it down if he liked anything.
Of course, if you want to buy things in the ghost market, you must bring enough money when you go out. The ghost market is all made in cash, and the bank transfer is not good. Of course, if there are particularly expensive things, the amount is also quite large, you can make an appointment with the owner first, pay the deposit first, and then trade it. Song Yi put tens of thousands of dollars in his backpack this time when he went out, in case of emergencies. You must know that when you see good things in the ghost market, you have to start immediately. If you don’t bring enough money and get ahead by others, you will lose a lot.
Song Yi went to Lin Baoqing's house to pick her up first. As soon as she knocked on the door, Lin Baoqing, who was beautifully packed, came out. Her current dress was also very youthful and lively. She was white T-shirt and blue denim shorts. The weather was hot, and her hair was no longer covered but was tied as a ponytail. Lin Baoqing's face was not the most beautiful among the girls Song Yi knew, but it was the most comfortable for him, and it made people feel more and more attractive.
"Does Uncle Lin want to go today?" Song Yi also asked her.
"He just got up and had to wait before he could go out. Let's go first." Lin Baoqing replied. After she came out, she took the door with her.
Song Yi said yes, and he just asked politely, and didn't think he would go to the ghost market with Lin Baoqing's father.
It was like a day without seeing each other three autumns. At this time, it was only less than four o'clock in the middle of the night, and there was still silence around, which also gave the two a very good communication environment. Song Yi took the initiative to take Lin Baoqing's hand and rubbed his hands all the way. It took him a lot of time to arrive at the nearby ghost market.
Before they entered, the two of them felt the warm atmosphere of the ghost market. Although they were not brightly lit, they were already shady and many people had already arrived at the ghost market.
"Don't tell me that you are going early, there are people who are going early." Lin Baoqing sighed, and then became happy again, "I haven't been to the ghost market with you for a long time. I don't know if I can find any treasures today. I have not received any special gains when I came with my dad several times before."
"Look at it casually. As long as you are with Baoqing, you can do anything. But I remember you said that I am your lucky star and may something lucky will happen." Song Yi replied with a smile.
Lin Baoqing nodded slightly, then pulled Song Yi and walked forward quickly, "I hope so too, let's go and have a look."
The two of them wasted some time on the road, and Lin Baoqing didn't want to waste his time at this time.
She was with Song Yi, and each stall would stop and take a look. Although Lin Baoqing knew very well, some cargo owners had never produced any good things in their hands. Because with Song Yi by her side, Lin Baoqing believed in Song Yi's vision more than herself. He could always find things that others did not know about the value. Maybe an ordinary collection would turn into magic when it came to Song Yi.
When the two of them were moving along the way, Song Yi exchanged some collection identification techniques with Lin Baoqing after seeing the collection on the stall, which was also some of his own experience. He was eager to pour all of them over to Lin Baoqing. If he was in another place, Lin Baoqing could also go to the ghost market to Taobao.
Lin Baoqing listened carefully and asked questions from time to time. After all, the value of many collections has not been fully discovered in the current market.
Song Yi also patiently explained that this scene was similar to the past when he and Lin Baoqing visited the ghost market. On this, the two also had a considerable common language, which resonated most of the time.
As the two walked past, they saw that there were many people around the place in front of them, so she pulled Song Yi into the crowd to watch the fun.
The stall owner who set up a stall is a familiar face and has produced some genuine products in his hand, most of which were dug out from the ground. Naturally, Lin Baoqing and the others would not pursue the investigation. Ghost Market is such a place. Even if it is a tomb robber, others will not investigate the source. In fact, the entire antique industry is similar, unless the public security organs personally take action to indicate that something is illegal.
Lin Baoqing's eyes were sharp-eyed and suddenly found that the two more items he had appeared here than last time, all of which were bronzes. She also whispered to Song Yi, "I didn't see these two bronzes when I came last time, and I don't know if he had just taken it off recently. The owner of this stall was named Li, and he had also taken some genuine products before."
Song Yi nodded and realized that these two bronze ware are the focus of everyone's attention now.
"It seems that there are quite a lot of people who know the goods," said Song Yi. It's not surprising that when he came to Donghai Ghost Market to buy things, most of them were people in the circle. When it comes to the eyes and knowledge, Song Yi dared not say that he is better than them. Song Yi's biggest advantage is that he can know the future market direction and has more experience and knowledge that others do not have.
Lin Baoqing was also a little worried. If these two bronzes were really genuine, it would be quite difficult to snatch them back from so many people.
Of course, the premise of all this is that these two bronzes are genuine. As for how to identify them, it depends on your personal vision and strength.
Lin Baoqing also paid close attention to it now. One of them was the bronze short sword. It is particularly worth mentioning that this was a gilded bronze sword.
From the perspective of ordinary people, this bronze sword is too simple and simple, not as fashionable as it is. It is not fashionable enough. If you want them, you would rather buy antique swords with good shape and glamorous appearance.
As for another bronze ware, this one is even more shocking. It is a Shang Zun. Not only is the exquisite shape so exquisite that it makes people say nothing, it is majestic, thick and exquisite. Even a newbie who is just a newcomer can see how extraordinary this Shang Zun is.
Now everyone's main attention is also focused on this Shangzun, and the expressions on everyone's face are also different.
Lin Baoqing also felt that if this Shang Zun was real, it would definitely be considered a national treasure. Whoever bought it back would really be considered a treasure. She hasn't started it yet, but based on her experience, the shape and characteristics of this Shang Zun are particularly in line with the identification standards of bronze ware in the Shang Dynasty. As for what it really is, I have to look carefully before talking about it.
When she looked at Song Yi again, he focused on the gilded bronze short sword. It seemed that he was more interested in the gilded sword. As for whether he did not want to compete with others for Shang Zun or other reasons, Lin Baoqing couldn't explain it clearly.
Everyone's energy is focused on Shangzun, and their opinions on it are different. As for the origin of these two bronzes, everyone has a question in their hearts.
Song Yi had the opportunity to hold the bronze dagger in his hand and carefully appreciate it. This particularly simple bronze dagger was mostly from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. By the later period of the Qin and Han Dynasties, bronzes gradually withdrew from the stage of history.
During the Warring States Period, this gilding technique was already available. This gilding is an ancient but very practical technique. It has shined since the Warring States Period. The method of making it is to mix and melt gold and silver, apply it to the surface of the bronze ware, and then grind it. Its luxurious and brilliant have not faded for a long time. However, gilding ware has been passed down to this day. The main reason is that it has been damaged by wars and gold components in the utensils. In addition, many tomb robbers do not know the artistic value of gilding, so they sell it to gold smiths according to their weight, and melted into gold nuggets or gold ingots, so there are countless damaged gilding utensils.
The gilding technique that people often call time is also the gilding technique.
It is precisely because it contains gold and there are too many damaged gilded objects, so there are not many gilded items that can be left behind. Such gilded bronze daggers are becoming more and more precious.
After getting started in person, Song Yi also used a flashlight to carefully observe the details of the gilded bronze sword and weighed the weight to estimate whether it was a genuine product.
The identification results came out soon. Judging from Song Yi's experience, the probability of this Warring States gilded bronze dagger belonging to the authentic product is more than 90%. Moreover, although the current gilding technology is more mature than in the past, Song Yi has not seen many people make such gilded bronze swords.
Whether the gilded part is real gold is very easy to distinguish. Especially for making this bronze sword, the gilded technique will make the gold tightly stick to the bronze ware without falling off. However, after thousands of years, even the perfect technique cannot perfectly allow the gold to exist. There will always be places where it falls off and rust, and there are traces to follow. Experts who specialize in bronze ware can often easily distinguish it. Therefore, if the fraud is not done well, it will steal the chicken and lose the rice. If it cannot be sold, it will definitely lose money.
Song Yi held the bronze sword in his hand and identified it as the authentic one, so he would definitely not put it back easily. If someone snatched it away, he would really have to cry without tears. What he has to consider now is to take it down at the lowest cost.
When he was about to ask the stall owner, he found that the attention of the goods in his fifties was completely attracted by everyone. Of course, the target was still the Shangzun. At this time, everyone's opinions gradually became unified. Whether they thought it was true or false, they all clearly realized that if it was really genuine, it would definitely be considered a bronze ware of the national treasure level, and if this came, its price would definitely not be low.
At this time, Lin Baoqing also approached Song Yi's ear and whispered to him if the bronze short sword was real. Song Yi nodded and asked her to help cooperate and try to take it down quickly.
It was a good opportunity now. He was considering how to take down the gilded bronze sword. This Shang Zun helped him a lot, attracted everyone's attention and reduced the attention of the gilded sword. It was not a big deal for others to lose sight. It was indeed the Shang Zun that this Shang Zun was too eye-catching and too eye-catching.
Lin Baoqing and Song Yi both knew that the gilding craze that had been popular for a while in the 1980s, but this craze has gradually faded. Newcomers who have just entered the industry may not have realized the value of this gilding ware. Since Song Yi wanted to win, he would definitely feel that it was worth and necessary to win.
Lin Baoqing had also had several dealings with the owner named Li, and of course he knew how to get benefits from him.
Lin Baoqing's smart man would not seize such a good opportunity now. While everyone's mind is on Shang Zun, even Boss Li was thinking about how much the Shang Zun should sell. Lin Baoqing first praised his Shang Zun, and then discussed with him the price of the relatively inconspicuous gilded bronze short sword.
Boss Li spoke up, and said 10,000 yuan. Lin Baoqing paid the money on the spot, and paid him a price of 2,000 yuan. She had dealt with him before and could see clearly that Boss Li is not the kind of person who doesn't know the profession and is not easy to fool. In Song Yi's words, he had to bully him without understanding the value of such things in the future. It's completely up to pick up bargains, which is not feasible in the ghost market, especially for these veterans who have been through this for a long time. It is still quite difficult to deceive them.
While the two negotiated, many people asked him about the price of Shang Zun, which also gave Lin Baoqing an opportunity to take advantage of it.
But even so, she finally paid 4,300 yuan and took down the gilded Warring States bronze sword.
Song Yi said that it was acceptable, and Lin Baoqing completed the task successfully. The only thing she was curious about was whether this Shang Zun was real?
